### 4/5 — Great

*2026-01-08, version 4.0.33*

Super user friendly app! Thank you.

### 3/5 — Would have give 5 stars

*2025-11-06, version 4.0.33*

The app.  Is cumbersome to use
Not a smooth experience

### 3/5 — The app is good, some of the requirements are unclear

*2025-05-27, version 4.0.28*

The app is good although the requirement about document type is unclear

### 3/5 — Password setup is a pain

*2025-02-06, version 4.0.23*

Allow copy and paste for password changes. Its a pain.

### 2/5 — Slow and not repsonding

*2023-10-28, version 4.0.13*

Tried numerous times to log a claim during a home emergency. The app kept crashing and buffering for long periods of time, the crashing again. This happened over and over again. I ended up phoning the call centre. Much easier than using a slow app.

### 5/5 — User friendly app

*2023-08-14, version 4.0.11*

The app is very user friendly to submit claims and tracking. Can see so many features added in a years time.

### 5/5 — Good app

*2023-08-10, version 4.0.11*

Used for raising a claim, lot of steps but captures relevant information. Got a tracking screen afterwards with the details, loved it as I can see the status and the contact info along with my documents. 
Policy part could be more better seems like too many data in a single screen, but it does the work.
Waiting for more features in the future.

### 3/5 — Useful

*2023-07-03, version 4.0.9*

The app is useful and user interfaces are intuitive

### 1/5 — Business

*2022-05-29, version 3.0.27*

How do i sign in for a Business dont see any place to type policy nr or Reg Nr. Its not picking my policy up by id nr.

### 1/5 — App shuts down

*2022-05-28, version 3.0.27*

Every time when I go to Policies > All risks, then I scroll, app closes by itself

### 1/5 — App update.

*2026-04-03, version 4.0.25*

Cannot use my App. It keeps telling me to update. When I try it says requires IOS16. I don’t have IOS16. Only have IOS15.8.7.
What now? 
How do I get to use the App?

### 1/5 — Drive me home

*2025-11-13, version 4.0.33*

Unable to book a trip

### 1/5 — Broken signup process

*2025-08-27, version 4.0.31*

Unable to create a new account via the app. Get told “email address is invalid”. I try to log in and weirdly my account has been created with said invalid email address. There is then a random “yes/no” option with no corresponding question which toggles between wanting an ID or passport number. Assume there question is about whether I am an SA citizen. When entering one of these I get an error saying “no details found”. If I select “I’ll do this later” I get logged out and am back at square one.

### 1/5 — Register

*2024-08-07, version 4.0.18*

I get an error message saying ‘registration failed’ without any explanation, when trying to register to use the app. Highly frustrating.

### 1/5 — Pathetic

*2024-01-18, version 4.0.15*

Can’t get the app to work .. unable to rest my password. Been trying for several attempts….

### 1/5 — Phone Passcode

*2023-08-22, version 4.0.11*

Why do I need to have my phone passcode enabled to use the app.
The app is for emergencies of all kind and if I forget my password I won’t be able to use the app? Or what if my wife or children need to use it in an emergency? Please disable that function

### 1/5 — Very poor effort

*2023-04-22, version 4.0.6*

In 2023 it should not be difficult to develop a basic app that works. It takes up to 30 seconds to load each page, when moving between different parts of the app. All I see is a revolving circle when open a new page - why such a slow response time? Quicker for me to navigate the full website in my cell phone than to use the app

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2023-03-02, version 4.0.2*

Don’t know who thought this was ready to go live. Worst insurance app ever!

### 1/5 — OTP?

*2022-09-01, version 3.0.31*

Have tried to register on the App requested OTP 4 times and after 30 min still waiting????

### 1/5 — Terrible - can’t log in

*2022-07-27, version 3.0.30*

Try to log in, go for “forgot password” enter new password and then tells me account locked because of too many attempts…..did not even try to log in, went straight to change password option. Terrible experience.

### 5/5 — Best service ever

*2025-11-19, version 4.0.33*

Quick and effective process

### 5/5 — So simple

*2025-07-28, version 4.0.30*

I hate the process of making calls and being put on hold and the app makes everything so easy and simple and efficient

### 5/5 — Great service

This is the best service and keep it up with this great endeavour

### 5/5 — SANTAM APP SERVICE APPLICATION

*2024-11-14, version 4.0.22*

Completed windscreen stone crack damage conveniently and received prompt response of registration. Most effective and efficient process.
Thank you Santam

### 5/5 — Stuck

*2024-08-06, version 4.0.18*

When attempting to claim for a burst geyser, the app asks what type of geyser it is with a drop down menu. Selecting the type does not register so when you press “next” it does not proceed indicating to first select the type, try again same thing, basically stuck and cannot complete the claim! So much for using the app- back to the call centre I guess

### 5/5 — App review.

*2024-08-02, version 4.0.18*

Simple user friendly and easy to navigate.

### 5/5 — Santam App

*2024-06-18, version 4.0.17*

Very user friendly app

### 5/5 — Loving it!

*2023-08-16, version 4.0.11*

Helpful with raising claim and tracking those.
Got an option to rate the service provider after the completion. It would be better if I can see the rating of the service provider while requesting for one.
Over all I am loving the app.

### 5/5 — Enjoyed

*2023-08-14, version 4.0.11*

I am able to see my policy details also got notification on my debit orders.
Loved the claims update section.
Thanks Santam

### 5/5 — Great app
